Jill Deacon
Counsellor/Therapist, BSc and FdSc Person Centred Counselling. MBACP
Addictive substances or behaviours change the way we feel.
People can experience addiction in different ways whether it is a physical or psychological dependence, a compulsive disorder, a physiological, cultural or social issue.
I take a broad view of all these and invite you to bring yourself where we can look at the addictive behaviour and its possible sources. Addiction can be when something becomes compulsive and you feel like you have no choice, that even with serious negative consequences you may continue with the behaviour and it begins to dominate your world.
Counselling can help you explore and identify behaviours, patterns and feelings; working to understand, acknowledge and to accept the way you live life in a healthier way.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Addictions are behaviours in which we engage to enable us to cope with deep emotional pain, usually stemming from some form of trauma in our lives. Social and environmental factors can also play a role in developing addictions. Addictions include the use of alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, smoking, shopping, etc. as a way to provide temporary relief from the painful thoughts and negative feelings that arise within us. Over time addictions establish themselves as the go-to relief to cope with our emotions, but at the same time render us less functional. Our relationships, work, and homelife begin to suffer from the consequences of the addiction. Talking therapy can help to uncover and resolve the pain that lies beneath addiction and over time help us to reconnect with our inner selves and to discover and develop behavioural responses to replace the addictive behaviour.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I have over 25 years’ experience of living within 12-step recovery, including recovery from addiction to drugs, alcohol, and sex and love. This lived experience informs my clinical work, particularly with clients who are new to recovery, returning to it, or seeking additional therapeutic depth alongside an established recovery programme.
I understand the complexities of recovery beyond abstinence, including identity, relationships, shame, and long-standing patterns of self-protection. I bring this understanding together with my professional training in Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering a thoughtful and grounded therapeutic approach that respects both structure and complexity.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
Addiction is never just about the substance—it’s about pain, protection, and survival.
Whether you're navigating recovery, in active addiction, or somewhere in between, I offer a nonjudgmental space to explore the deeper roots beneath the behavior. With a background in front-line work in addiction and trauma treatment centers, I understand how complex and layered this journey can be. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you build compassionate relationships with the parts of you that turn to substances for relief, connection, or escape. Together, we’ll work to heal the wounds underneath and reconnect you with the strength, clarity, and Self-energy already within you.

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
Addiction often develops as a coping mechanism for dealing with unresolved trauma. Substances can provide temporary relief from emotional pain, anxiety and depression. However, reliance on these substances can lead to a dependency and exacerbate a person's challenges. By providing psycho education to my client's about trauma and addiction we can help demystify your experience and this provides a framework for understanding your challenges. Psychoeducation can cover topics like how trauma affects the brain, the cycle of addiction and coping mechanisms. Knowledge empowers my clients to engage actively in your recovery. Mindfulness and grounding exercises can help you stay present and manage any overwhelming emotions, reducing anxiety and enhancing self-awareness. These techniques can help you cope with triggers and stressors. I encourage you to build a support network as this can provide emotional backing and practical assistance, reinforcing the therapeutic process. Working with addiction in a trauma informed way is a compassionate and effective approach that addresses the root cause of your addiction.
